What about personal safety during court appointments and proceedings?

16/07/2014

Where someone must attend court proceedings, it is important that the Court is notified about any concerns regarding personal safety.

In situations where someone is required to attend a court appointment or legal proceedings, the court can make special arrangements where someone has fears about being in the presence of their former partner. Depending upon the circumstances, it may be possible to participate in the proceedings by phone, by video, or in a separate room.
